A getaway vehicle only works if you don’t crash it.
Police arrested a woman on Thursday after she robbed the Mr. Gs on Highway 16 by threatening staff with a hypodermic needle. The woman fled the scene in a stolen Ford F-150 pickup truck. When she made her getaway, however, she drove into a vehicle in the parking lot and put the stolen F-150 in the ditch.
Police arrested the woman at the scene. She was taken to the Prince George Regional Hospital to be checked out by the emergency department and then taken to the police detachment.
No one was injured in the incident and the woman is facing several charges, including armed robbery and possession of stolen property.
